News: Its summertime and campus has slown a bit, but the Physical Anthropology Labs are still buzzing with activity!

Dannielle Tompkins and Dr Brigitte Holt have returned from their respective research sites in Europe and now begin the exciting analysis phase of their projects! Dannielle returns to us from Italy where she was examining skeletal pathologies on populations from the Late Roman Period to the Early Middle Ages (1st-8th centuries). While Dr Holt continues her research with European populations from the Neolithic Period to modern times, examining how skeletal structure is related to behavioral patterns.

Congratulations go out to Dr. Laurie Godfrey who recieved a Samuel F. Conti Faculty Fellowship Award for her outstanding academic accomplishments!!!!!
